Pin Badges: The Collectible Craze of the 80s and 90s

Pin badges became a huge collecting phenomenon during the late 1980s and early 1990s.

These small metal badges featuring cartoons, brands, sports teams, movies, and countless other themes were traded and collected by millions of people.

The hobby grew so large that specialized magazines, fairs, and collector events appeared throughout many countries.

Today, vintage pin badges remain highly collectible and are remembered as one of the defining trends of the 1990s.
